Hey, I just downloaded this game today and can say right off the bat, that I am going to enjoy it alot, I love the layout and the simplicity. I just had one issue when comparing this game to other MMOs, the interface is SOOOO tiny. Is there anyway to make the interface larger? without dropping the resolution?

    I had to work with mine a lot. I changed from full screen to window. That helped a lot for me. I liked it small though. For me when I started it was too big. Try changing from full screen to window and see if that helps for what you're wanting. If not you will likely have to change the resolution.

    This game has its glitches just like any other. But it is top notch for F2P. I dare you to find one with better graphics and options in customization!!! If they keep going it could easily be better than any P2P.

    Anyways, enjoy. This is a great place for information. Search the forums, if its not already been asked, just ask. Most are very pleasant on here and eager to help out new comers!

    I play at the top res I've not found any way to make the UI display better when at a really high resolution.

    I do advise making the text size as large as possible and making it bold (in game) as this makes it a whole lot easier to read at high resolutions. Everything else though is out of our hands b:cry

    You'll also experience many problems of not having access to enough action bars and the ability to assign hot keys to different spells/actions. To me this is something that really needs to be worked on as ever with my most important skills assigned to a hot key I have skills that I need on occasion that I just don't have room for on my action bars and its really annoying having to click skills or keep pressing TAB//` to cycle my bars. b:angry

    The only thing I want to see is the squad window on right side. I could mention another game with great graphics and that is free to play although you do have to buy the game.

    Decreasing the resolution while in Full Screen mode increases the size of the UI while decreasing the resolution.

    So, 1024x768 will have a larger UI than 1280x1024 in full screen mode.

    Unfortunately no. I play on a large widescreen monitor and this really bugs me too. Most everything is fine, I just wish I could make the minimap larger.

    Smaller looks nicer and cleaner.
    PWE has bigger interface in Ethersaga and also Jade Dynasty (open beta atm), and it makes it harder to see the screen, not to mention the fact that it gives a really 'kiddy' type of interface... which i personally dont like. (think rounded colorful baby toys)
